Do you feel tired with the activities and big city life that very stressful? I think a good idea to try visiting a place far from city noise. A place where the air is still very clean and cool, a place where you can mingle with nature, a place where you can think that you created for a reason.
Located in northwestern Wyoming, Grand Teton National Park preserves a spectacular landscape rich with majestic mountains, pristine lakes and extraordinary wildlife. The abrupt vertical rise of the jagged Teton Range contrasts with the horizontal sage-covered valley and glacial lakes at their base, creating world-renowned scenery that attracts nearly four million visitors per year.
Some information that may be useful for you before you decide to visit Grand Teton National Park :
*The park is open year-round although many facilities, concessioners and roads close for the winter season. The Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center is open for permits and information 364 days a year, closed on December 25. The outer highway 26/89/191 is open year-round within the park and east through Togwotee Pass to Dubois. The Teton Park Road is closed to vehicle access from the beginning of November through the end of April depending on snow conditions. During this period, the road is open to non-motorized recreation (skiing, snowshoeing, cycling, walking, rollerblading) depending on snow and ice conditions on the road surface.
*There are four visitor centers and one ranger station inside the park and memorial parkway. Visitor centers in the park are located at Moose, Jenny Lake, Colter Bay and at Flagg Ranch in the John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. The ranger station at south Jenny Lake provides information and backcountry permitting for climbing and mountaineering in the park. Visit the interagency visitor center in the town of Jackson on Cache Street for information on the National Elk Refuge, national forests and other public lands as well as town information.
*Grand Teton National Park is world-renowned for its wildlife viewing opportunities. Some of the most sought-after animals that can be found inside the park include: moose, black and grizzly bears, pronghorn, elk, bald eagles, gray wolves, coyotes and bison. Always stay a safe distance of at least 300 feet from large animals; wild animals are unpredictable and can cause personal injury or even death if not respected.
*Walk through a historic landmark district, view bison sparring from a roadside turnout, float the Snake River—there is something for everyone at Grand Teton National Park. Pick up hiking maps and information on activities such as fishing, boating and climbing at park visitor centers. There are a variety of guide services and recreation concessioners that operate in the park. Or join a free of charge guided walk or talk at a park visitor center.
